Abstract: The Bounded Height Conjecture of Bombieri, Masser, and Zannier states that for any sufficiently generic algebraic subvariety of a semiabelian overlinemathbbQ-variety G there is an upper bound on the Weil height of the points contained in its intersection with the union of all algebraic subgroups having (at most) complementary dimension in G. This conjecture has been shown by Habegger in the case where G is either a multiplicative torus or an abelian variety. However, there are new obstructions to his approach if G is a general semiabelian variety. In particular, the lack of Poincar'e reducibility means that quotients of a given semiabelian variety are intricate to describe. To overcome this, we study directly certain families of line bundles on G. This allows us to demonstrate the conjecture for general semiabelian varieties.
